[quote:oq9jkcp2]Sounds good! Have you tasted it? What is it like?[/quote:oq9jkcp2]
It's grand - anyone who has tried it finds it okay. The flavour is a bit "thinner" than the real thing, but I suppose technically I'd call it a de-alcoholised wine rather than alcohol free - it's about 0.3% residual.
However, the flavour is thus much more like regular wine, as it is, literally, 'regular' wine with the alcohol removed. I find some alcohol-free "wines" (they're not really wines at all....), are like syrupy fruit juice, and are cloying and just vile - yuck!
To be honest, although it's as close to the real thing as I've found, if I couldn't have the real thing during pregnancy, I just wouldn't bother, personally!
Fizzy water is the new red wine. For me (these days!) anyway. ;)
